Gold Price in Other Countries in Indian Rupees
Gold is traded worldwide in US dollars, so its underlying value is almost the same everywhere once converted to rupees. What changes from country to country is tax: India adds 15% import duty plus 3% GST, while places like Hong Kong, Qatar and Kuwait add no sales tax at all.

Why gold looks cheaper abroad
The rupee value in the table is the same for every country because it is the international price of gold converted at today's exchange rate. India's price is higher mainly because of the 15% customs duty in force since 13 May 2026. Local taxes abroad — 5% VAT in the UAE and Oman, 10% in Bahrain, 15% in Saudi Arabia, 20% on jewellery in the UK, 9% GST on jewellery in Singapore — reduce the gap. Some markets, such as Vietnam, also have local premiums because of supply limits.
Bringing gold home
If you buy jewellery abroad, India allows 40 g (women) or 20 g (others) duty-free after more than a year abroad. Read the country guides: UAE (Dubai) · Saudi Arabia · Oman · Qatar · Kuwait · Bahrain · Singapore · Malaysia · Thailand · Hong Kong · Vietnam · USA · Canada · United Kingdom.
